Two other Indians in the fray, Satyendra Singh and Deepak Kumar, shot 623.9 and 617.8 to finish in 46th and 84th place respectively among 129 shooters.

It was an excellent performance by Ravi in a high quality competition as is evident with the world record score in the finals. There were high scores in the qualification with 627.8 being the score of the eighth place qualifier.

Seasoned campaigners and top shooters like Peter Sidi and Istvan Peni of Hungary, Rio silver medallist in the event Serhiy Kulish of Ukraine, Rio finalist Illia Charheika of Belarus and former Olympic champion Alin Moldoveanu of Romania fell by the wayside in qualification.

The second final of the day will be the women's 10m air rifle event.
